Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 518 The One Who Supports the Sky and Suppresses the Sea

"That's strange, why did my progress get maxed out in the middle of the night?" Chu Danqing was also a little puzzled.

Today, Jiang Buqi and Liu He got married, progress +1.

With only 1 point of progress remaining, Chu Danqing thought she would have to wait until tomorrow to open the magic bag.

Therefore, he suspected that the last bit of progress might not be so legitimate.

Otherwise, how could I max out my stats at this point?

[Mission Completed, You Gain: Paradise Points x 20000, Attribute Points +5]
-
You have obtained the status: Heaven-Supporting and Sea-Suppressing.
-
[Trial Mission: Eliminate the three calamities of the 'Yaksha' within 3 months (0/3)]

[Trial Difficulty: S-Rank (Nightmare)]

[Trial Reward: Paradise Points x 20000, Attribute Points +5]

[Trial Failed: Paradise Points -40000, Random Attribute -2, Forced Return]

Sure enough, after completing the task, the park sent Chu Danqing another status update.

This name must have come from Jiang Buqi, and it's highly likely that it's one of his core elements.

【Supporting Heaven and Suppressing the Sea】

[Effect 1: Increases the effectiveness of martial arts-related skills by 1000%]

[Effect 2: Martial Ability Value +500%]

[Effect 3: Willpower +10]

(Note: This status will disappear after leaving the trial world or completing the trial mission.)
(Note: After completing the trial, if you possess a Martial Aspect, your Martial Aspect will gain a skill of the same quality.)
(Note: The effects of inherited skills also apply to permanent summons transformed from Martial Spirit.)

Unlike the Dragon Bone, the Sky-Supporting Sea is a purely combat-oriented state.

For Chu Danqing, the only useful buffs are Willpower and the enhanced Martial Aspect after completing the trial.

However, compared to dragon bones, it lacks the process of inheriting destiny.

After all, theoretically, one can only have one destiny.

He's already inherited the Jade Dragon's throne, so how could he inherit the Heavenly King's throne?

If they can truly inherit the throne, then who will ultimately be destined to succeed: the Jade Dragon or the Heavenly King?
He's just one person, so there's definitely no way to split the results into two.

However, there's no need to worry too much. Once the task is completed, the status will disappear, and the destiny journey will naturally disappear as well.

"Improve quality and gain inherited skills." Chu Danqing muttered, "That means there are also ways to acquire bloodlines and talents later on."

"The money wasn't wasted." Chu Danqing was certain that the trial mission was related to the Brilliant-grade consumable item, the Fragment of the Shadow Claw.

This looks like a series of missions.

Indeed, the higher the quality, the better the effect.

He received the same treatment back then when he used the Heavenly Pool Dragon of superior quality, but it wasn't as good as this time.

"Then we just have to wait until tomorrow." Chu Danqing glanced at the time.

The previous brocade pouch stated that it was for the day after the marriage, which was the day after the two people got married.

It's only midnight, we definitely can't open it now.

Chu Danqing is a person who listens to advice.

In particular, since the Tianji system is essentially about information, accuracy and timeliness are very important.

So he started cultivating on his own.

He didn't open the last brocade pouch until the next morning when the servants called him to have breakfast.

Dingxing Miaohai, the ugliest of them all.

Chu Danqing understood the meaning: the first part was probably a place name, and Yaksha was the ugliest person.

"So here's the problem." Chu Danqing looked at the contents in his hand and discovered a blind spot.

That means this task is just one part of the trial missions, and there are more tasks to come.

But the guide is gone.

"Skipping the plot and one-click navigation are really useful." Chu Danqing thought Yang Qianyuan was indeed amazing.

Unfortunately, it's still not as good as an amusement park.

"It's a good opportunity to ask Jiang Buqi and Duan Zhilu." Chu Danqing took Dabao to have breakfast together.

One of these two men was the former leader of the largest gang in the Eastern Lin Kingdom, and the other was the former regent, King Wen'an, of the Southern Zhao Kingdom.

They most likely know about this place.

Upon arrival, the father-in-law and son-in-law chatted over tea.

Chu Danqing was a guest, so it wasn't appropriate for him to eat first since he hadn't arrived.

As for Li Qingying, she was still asleep.

After exchanging pleasantries, they took their seats.

During the meal, Chu Danqing casually asked, "Gentlemen, are you familiar with the Star-Fixing Mystic Sea?"

"The Mystic Sea of ​​Fixed Stars?" Jiang Buqi pondered for a moment, then immediately realized, "Brother Chu, you mean the Mystic Sea Peak of Fixed Star Mountain, right?"

"I don't know, my friend just left me these four words." Chu Danqing recalled the map and confirmed that there was indeed such a place.

It is a mountain range located on the border between the Eastern Lin Kingdom and the Northern Shuo Kingdom, similar to Baihu Ridge.

"This should be it," Duan Zhilu replied, and then had a servant fetch a card: "I suppose young friend Chu is referring to the Rotten Axe Game on the eighth day of next month."

"The renowned martial arts master Mu Yehu widely issued invitations to heroes across the land, and I came to Donglin to seek Yu Han, using this very name."

He then handed the invitation to Chu Danqing, saying, "I won't go. Brother Chu, you can go in my place."

"That's great." Chu Danqing took the invitation directly, glanced at the contents, and saw that it was a normal invitation.

It is said that Mu Yehu set up a difficult game and invited heroes from all over the world to gather and break it.

It's called a "breakthrough," but it's probably just a gathering of江湖人士 (jianghu figures, people from all walks of life). That's why they invited not Duan Zhilu, but the Chongsheng Temple of Nanzhao.

Mu Yehou is a江湖人 (jianghu person, a person from the martial arts world), so he certainly wouldn't invite an official.

Logically, Chong Sheng Temple should have ignored it, since they receive about a hundred such invitations every year.

If it is within the territory of the Nanzhao Kingdom, Chongsheng Temple will arrange one or more elders to lead the team, depending on the strength of the invited power.

If it's from another country, it's usually ignored.

Duan Zhilu came this time under the pretense of accepting an invitation to pick up his lover, and then went back home.

It's a backup plan, its purpose being to provide a good excuse if discovered by the neighboring country to the east.

As for attending? Absolutely not.

"This person seems just average, right?" Chu Danqing thought about Mu Yehu in his mind.

He's quite a character, with strength around the bottom of the first-rate masters.

Even a second-rate expert could lose.

The intelligence indicated that it was of little value.

"This person is a free spirit, with no bad reputation in the martial arts world." Jiang Buqi also recalled this person. Apart from being old and senior, there were not many rumors about him.

He has always lived on Miaohai Peak of Dingxing Mountain. If we must speak of rumors, it is that he is good at chess.

"That's it?" Chu Danqing asked curiously, "You were the former leader of the Fengyun Gang. He invited martial arts figures from all over the world. How come you didn't know?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Buqi shrugged and said, "Whenever any sect or faction has a major event, they will invite all sects from all over the world."

"Actually, only people from our own country will come; a father-in-law like that is an exception."

"This is just a formality."

Hearing this, Chu Danqing fell silent, realizing it was just a polite remark.

He thought they would all actually come.

"Moreover, this person is not well-known in the martial arts world, and it is estimated that only the sects around Dingxing Mountain will take care of him."

“Most people won’t go,” Jiang Buqi explained to Chu Danqing. “When you get there, there might only be a handful of people.”

After hearing what he said, Chu Danqing understood that it wasn't just polite talk, but also a way of casting a wide net.

“That’s perfect, it’ll save me some trouble if no one’s around,” Chu Danqing replied, then added, “Since you’re all married now, I won’t stay any longer.”

"I'm going to Dingxing Mountain to check on the situation."

Upon hearing Chu Danqing's words, Jiang Buqi said, "Brother Chu, let's go together. The country in Donglin is currently in turmoil and may be restless."

"No need, the three of us can go." Chu Danqing refused, and then said, "You two are newlyweds, what kind of work is it for you to come with me?"

"On the contrary, it's you who should be concerned. With the Donglin Kingdom in turmoil, I suggest you flee to Nanzhao at the slightest sign of trouble," Chu Danqing reminded him.

Jiang Buqi nodded: "Brother Chu, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Since the last time he was besieged by the Crown Prince of Linjiang, his affection for the Eastern Lin Kingdom has completely disappeared.

Although he will not attack the Eastern Kingdom, he will not choose to help it either, and may even leave on his own initiative.

Therefore, his ability to support the heavens and suppress the seas was transferred to Chu Danqing.

"However, Brother Chu previously said that I possess the opportunity you need, but I still haven't been able to figure it out." Jiang Buqi asked Chu Danqing about the key to helping him.

"I've already got it," Chu Danqing said truthfully, but didn't reveal her condition.

Once it's brought up, it's bound to create some tension.

The name of the state "Supporting Heaven and Suppressing the Sea" is indeed a bit sensitive for Jiang Buqi.

"What is it? I don't know anything about it." Jiang Buqi was also puzzled.

Chu Danqing chuckled and said, "That's of course the friendship between top experts."

"If I were ever imprisoned, and I wrote to you begging for help, wouldn't you come and save me?"

"Not to mention, I was the one who brought you and Liu He together. How could you refuse?" Chu Danqing said matter-of-factly.

Jiang Buqi was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this; what kind of twist of fate was this?

However, upon hearing Chu Danqing's words, he cupped his hands and said, "If anything happens in the future, Brother Chu, just send me a letter, and I will gladly die for you."

Jiang Buqi now seems to understand why Chu Danqing was able to summon three thousand soldiers to help.

If you bestow kindness in this way, you will naturally have friends everywhere.

Although summoning three thousand soldiers and several top experts is indeed a bit outrageous.

It's somewhat reasonable, though.

“You can come to me if you need anything. If you can’t find me, you can ask Qingying; she can find me,” Chu Danqing said. “But if you really need something, you should go to Prince Duan first.”

“If he can’t solve it, then come to me. After all, I’m wandering around and it might not be so easy to find me,” Chu Danqing added.

"Brother Chu, rest assured, I am not one to stand on ceremony. I will not hesitate to ask for your help." Jiang Buqi laughed heartily.

"Since Brother Chu is going to Dingxing Mountain, does Brother Chu plan to go by horse or carriage?" Jiang Buqi said, "I will have my servants prepare it for Brother Chu."

Chu Danqing estimated the time and then said, "A carriage, it should arrive before the eighth of next month."

There's no need to rush; you can still cultivate, comprehend, and study along the way.

He guessed that the Yaksha in the trial mission was probably also someone who went to participate in the Rotten Chess Game.

Even if you went earlier, you wouldn't see anyone. As for scheming for personal gain?

Chu Danqing had no idea what the benefits would be or what he was planning.

Not to mention that the time spent on the journey was not wasted, as cultivation is one of the foundations for becoming stronger.
